It was quite the weekend for KC sports. Let’s recap.

On Saturday, the KC Current kicked it off by washing out Pachuca, 3-0, defending their unbeaten streak in the 2024 Summer Cup.

Then, Sunday, both the Royals and Sporting KC faced Chicago opponents.

The Royals were unable to stave off the Chicago Cubs, losing 7-3 in the final game of a three-game series. The team finished their nine-game homestand 5-4.

Sporting KC won the opening 2024 Leagues Cup Match, 2-1, and put a damper on the Chicago Fire. They started off slow but managed to make a comeback, fueled by Robert Castellanos leveling the score with a header.
